Chapter 0017: Go Straight to the Central Army
"Who are you?" A group of people and horses came roaring in front of the Sui army camp. A soldier on the gate shouted loudly: "Tell me your name, otherwise you will be shot with arrows."
"How dare you! Sang Xianhe, a lieutenant under General Qu Tu, has come to report the battle situation on the orders of the general. Why don't you open the camp gate?" The leading general, holding a sword, shouted loudly, "Are you looking for death? Who will be held responsible if the battle is delayed? The army is encircling and suppressing the rebels at this time. Who can come here at this time? Why don't you open the door for me?"
"Wait!" The Sui army on the arrow tower did not dare to delay and quickly sent people down to open the camp gate. Not to mention that this matter would affect Yuwen Shu's command of the army, and at this time, everyone was encircling and suppressing the rebels. The rebels did not even have time to escape, so how could they have the courage to break into the central army?
The gate finally opened slowly, and hundreds of cavalrymen rushed out and galloped straight towards the central army.
Inside the big tent, Yuwen Shu sat on a chair reading a book. Messengers came in from outside from time to time and told him what happened in the rebel camp to facilitate Yuwen Shu's command of the army.
"Grandfather, why don't you let me go and see Yang Xuangan? I heard that Yang Xuangan is known as the best general in the world, with the courage of a tyrant. I'm afraid no one in the army can resist him. Why don't you let me go? I will definitely cut off his head and present it to you." A young man was strong and powerful, with tiger eyes, thick eyebrows, and ape arms and a bee waist. He wore a golden helmet with two phoenixes, a golden chain mail, and held a phoenix-wing gilded hammer in his hand. It was the most powerful general of the Yuwen family, Yuwen Chengdu, the great general of the Sui Dynasty.
Yuwen Shu looked up at his grandson and sighed, "Chengdu, you are extremely brave, but marching and fighting are not just about personal bravery. Xiang Yu was extremely brave, but he was defeated by Liu Bang in the end. Look at Yang Xuangan, he was also extremely brave, but he was defeated by me."
Yuwen Chengdu immediately showed a nonchalant look on his face after hearing this, and couldn't help but say: "Grandfather's words make sense, but Yang Xuangan is known as the most powerful general of our Great Sui Dynasty. If I don't fight with such a person, I will be at a great loss."
"The most powerful general of the Sui Dynasty? That's Yu Juluo, your master. Who is Yang Xuangan?" Yuwen Shu shook his head and was about to continue speaking when he suddenly saw a group of people slowly approaching outside the big tent. His expression changed slightly.
"Who are you? How dare you approach the central military tent?" Outside the tent, personal soldiers stepped forward to stop them.
"Following the orders of Lord Wei, rush to support the central army. Don't get out of the way." A clear voice came.
"Wei Xuan? Need help from the central army?" Yuwen Chengdu was stunned, and couldn't help laughing: "With my grandson here, who dares to attack the central army? Old Wei is really confused."
"Quick, stop them, they are the enemy." Yuwen Shu's eyes narrowed and he couldn't help shouting. Yuwen Chengdu was stunned and couldn't help looking across.
"Kill." At this time, an angry roar came from the opposite side, and a cold light flashed in the night sky. A huge head flew up, and then hundreds of cavalrymen rushed towards the big tent.
"Damn you." Yuwen Chengdu's face was gloomy. He didn't expect that there would be cavalrymen who dared to charge and directly rush into the central army tent. He didn't expect that the defense line he arranged was so weak that the enemy actually rushed into the central army camp with a swagger, only a few dozen steps away from the tent. He strode out with the phoenix-wing gilded hammer in his hand. After leaving the tent, he climbed onto the warhorse, followed by more than a hundred guards of the tent.
"Attack them unexpectedly when they are unprepared. What a good tactic." Yuwen Shu's face was calm. In front of him, there were more than ten personal soldiers of the Yuwen family, guarding him. He could even go out of the tent and look at the hundreds of cavalrymen roaring towards him.
Li Yu also discovered Yuwen Chengdu. Looking at the gilded Phoenix-winged hammer in his hand, he immediately knew the other party's origin. In the whole world, except Yuwen Tianbao, no one else would use this gilded Phoenix-winged hammer.
"Li Gu, lead the army and charge forward quickly. I will cover your retreat." Li Yu cheered up and looked at Yuwen Tianbao who was rushing over. This represented the top military force of the Sui Dynasty. As long as he was defeated, the situation on the battlefield could be changed.
"Dang!" A golden light stabbed towards Li Yu. Li Yu's face changed. He used the Great Xia Dragon Bird in his hand to meet it. He immediately felt a huge force piercing his sword. Li Yu's body swayed, and when he was about to counterattack, the golden light from the opposite side stabbed again, as fast as lightning. Li Yu had no chance to counterattack. He could only use the sword to block in front of his eyes. Still, a huge force came.
He had fought against Han Zhao before. Han Zhao was very fast, but Yuwen Tianbao in front of him was even faster and more powerful. If the sword in Li Yu's hand was not made of iron from outer space, and if Li Yu had not practiced diligently during this period, he would probably not be a match for Yuwen Tianbao and would be killed by the opponent in just a few moves.
Yuwen Tianbao's eyes flickered, he was also very surprised. He didn't know how many people he had killed with the Phoenix-wing Gilded Sword in his hand, but today was different. The young man opposite him had a good sword in his hand and his martial arts were also good, making it impossible for him to defeat him in a short time.
"General Tianbao, guard the general." Suddenly, a shrill scream came from behind.
Yuwen Tianbao looked back, only to see that Yuwen's private soldiers were retreating continuously. They were obviously no match for the rebels. Among the rebels, a fierce general was holding a hammer and charging into battle. Yuwen's private soldiers were no match for the other side. Almost no one could resist under his hammer and were hammered to death. There was also a man holding a spear, which was shining with cold light, like millions of pear blossoms. All the private soldiers in front of him were killed by the other side.
Seeing that the enemy's troops were getting closer and closer to Yuwen Shu, a look of fear appeared on Yuwen Shu's calm face. Yuwen Tianbao panicked and prepared to withdraw his troops to rescue Yuwen Shu.
"Want to leave." Li Yu would never let him leave, he rode forward, and stabbed Yuwen Tianbao with the sword in his hand. The offense and defense suddenly changed, and the Great Xia Dragon Bird rolled up a cold light, covering Yuwen Tianbao.
"Dang!" The phoenix-wing gilded hammer in Yuwen Tianbao's hand blocked in front of him.
Yuwen Tianbao was shaking all over and almost fell off his horse. A look of fear appeared on his face. At that moment, he felt an overwhelming force coming towards him, and the phoenix-wing gilded hammer in his hand seemed to be grasped.
"Yuwen Tianbao is nothing but this." Li Yu did not get entangled, but patted his horse and charged towards the central army tent opposite. He saw Yuwen Shu running away in the distance.
"Hurry up." The sword in Li Yu's hand flew, and he quickly killed the two private soldiers of the Yuwen family in front of him, and cut a path. Pang Jue and Li Gu immediately rushed out, and others such as Yang Ruoxi followed closely behind. They passed through the big tent and headed towards the rear camp.
When Pang Jue left, he threw the big tallow candle aside. The central army tent instantly caught fire. The flames soon illuminated the night sky, and the fire in the central army could be seen from a distance.
"Evil general, where are you going?" Only then did Yuwen Tianbao react. He was furious and followed closely behind, ready to kill him.
"Bang!" Another flash of sword light came towards him. In the darkness, Li Yu rushed up, and swung the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Sword in his hand towards Yuwen Tianbao fiercely.
Yuwen Tianbao never thought that Li Yu did not go far, but turned around to kill him. He was caught off guard and could only meet the attack with the Phoenix-wing gilded hammer in his hand. However, this time he failed to defend himself, and the sword hit the Phoenix-wing gilded hammer hard. The Phoenix-wing gilded hammer hit the armor on his chest, and Yuwen Tianbao was knocked away in an instant and fell to the ground.
"Good horse, thank you, General Yuwen." Poor Yuwen Tianbao hadn't reacted yet when he heard a burst of laughter in his ears. He saw a strong figure turning over and riding on his Qianli Huangma, and the figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
"Damn it." Yuwen Tianbao couldn't help but punch the ground, feeling indescribably aggrieved.
